#10 - Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End

I think it is time we all just took 2 seconds to think about how said pirated movies became available to download free of charge off these torrent site's in the first place.

I know people will say people with cameras in cinemas which I accept but what about the Blu-Ray and DVD-Rips how do people get copies of these before general release.... I wonder if you had something that was potentially worth billions of pounds you would leave it in venerable place where it could easily be stolen of copied.... Plus think about all the free advertising it gives the film makers when issues of piracy hits the newspaper, radio’s and TV screen I wonder how much that boosts the interest in that film.....

Just a thought!? :-)

I really couldn't give a F**K! After all i have more important things to think about!

Like finding a job, feeding my kids tomorrow, paying my rent, getting my book published.

I don't care how many times a film has been ripped or which have.

Why do they assume that if a film has been downloaded 18million times, that every one of those people would have bought it if file sharing was banned world wide

I usually see it on tv rather than part with my hard earned cash, and at £20 for a DVD/BLUE RAY

well they can kiss my...... you all know what im saying

sorry to correct you, but the film industry released details some time ago to suggest that downloader's are the biggest group of purchasers of "genuine product" also the same is true of Music downloader's.

It serves little purpose for keep complaining about illegal downloading. Both film and music industry are heavily involved in the manufacture and supply of PC's and peripheral hardware used for the purpose of downloading and piracy. In fact without piracy they would lose many millions in revenue. Think about those companies and their products: ie AOL invested in TIME (computers) & Warner (Films & Music) Sony (computers (CD / DVD)

What about video recorders that everyone grew up with? Download of films / music from TV, now dvd recorders do the same. Who manufactures these if not the same people who complain about illegal copies?

A new way of marketing the film & Music products is required. Google stream illegal films and sell advertising around the downloads. Was it not "Pirates" that made the modern music possible? Radio Caroline and others forced the BBC to abandon stiff upper lip broadcasting in favour of Radio 1. Those same tunes from then are now being sold to downloader's without payment of copyright because the law dictates intellectual copyrights expire at 40 years and now the music companies are cashing in by the same method taught to them by illegal downloader's.

So, film and Music industries, stop bleating and change the way you market to meet the needs of the customers. Accept reality and change your ways
